Spring home maintenance is an important part of keeping your home in its best condition. There are things to do today that can make life easier for the summer. They can even save you money and time. Here are some spring home maintenance tips.

• Clean out your gutters. Over the course of the fall and winter leaves, twigs and other debris can accumulate and cause poor drainage.
• Change your furnace filters and clean the area around your outdoor A.C. unit.
• Clear out your fireplace if you have one.
• Trim branches that may be overhanging on your roof. This can allow small animals like squirrels easy access and can even be a fire hazard. You’ll also want to trim dead branches so spring and summer storms don’t cause damage from falling limbs.
• Make sure your outdoor grill is clean and in good operating condition.
• Put fresh gas in your lawn mower and have the blades sharpened.
